A/N: My second attempt at Loveless fic. Please be kind. The first is rated PG-13 so I don�t
think it�s appropriate to post it here. But if you�re interested, I could
either post it here or you could check my LJ account from my profile. Anyway,
R&R please *bows*

Prologue

The city light looked so far away,
the voices were faint, and the city life seemed distant. From way up here, Soubi could almost believe that he was far from one of the
busiest city on earth, Tokyo.
But the reflection on the clear glass pane never failed to remind him of where
he was and what he was. Soubi was not far from Tokyo at all. In fact he
was right in the heart of the city.

In a building disguised as the headquarter of a respectable company, a secret club was
hidden. The Seven Moons was an exclusive club only few selected people had
heard of. It provided companions to the famous names and faces in the society
while guaranteeing perfect secrecy. The clients naturally demanded nothing less
than pleasant and good-looking company, which the Seven Moons so easily
provided. Beautiful employees and secrecy made the name of the Seven Moons,
making it the hottest underground club in the city.

In the Seven Moons, Agatsuma Soubi was the number one
escort. Many clients asked for is company but he was well known for his
selectiveness. Soubi only accompanied a handful of
his favored clients in the time he deemed convenient. It was really a wonder
how he became the most demanded person. He wasn't exactly the friendliest
person, he was too blunt, even bordering on rude often times, he was also cold
and sarcastic. Like snow, Soubi was both beautiful
and cold. His seductiveness and teasing personality only appeared in his
extremely rare good mood yet many clients would go to any extent to gain his
favor and spend time with him.

Soubi had no prior engagement tonight, a
rare feat in itself because despite everything, he seemed to always have his
schedule full. His last client, a president of a major drug company had just
left two hours ago, not without leaving his a souvenir. A classic painting of
chrysanthemums worth several million yen now hung on one of the walls of his
luxurious room. Perhaps Soubi could enjoy it more if
it weren't a bribe to spend several hours with him.

Soubi picked up a new suit jacket from
his closet, his previous one was soiled to him. No client
didn�t mean that he could not enjoy himself. A dinner at the new fancy
restaurant downtown seemed like a very appealing idea. A familiar voice called
for him just as he exited his suite, making him halt his steps.

"Sou-chan!"

Soubi turned to greet the person, a smile
splayed on his lips. Kyo was the second most famous
male escort in the Seven Moons and also the only person Soubi
could call a friend. As opposed to Soubi, Kyo was a friendly and outgoing young man. He loved wild
scenes and his clients adored his young virile spirit. The only similarity he
had with Soubi was his playfulness, though Soubi tended to be more sarcastic than he was. They
wouldn't have been friends if it weren't for Kyo's
determination to get to know the cold blond.

"You look good, Sou-chan. Where are you going? Do you have an appointment
tonight?" Kyo asked, looking up and down on Soubi's appearance appreciatively. The blond was wearing a
black shirt inside his beige suit jacket, looking very formal compared to Kyo's half-buttoned green silk shirt inside light-colored
suit.

"No. I'm going to have
dinner." Soubi explained with a smile that
seemed empty to Kyo. It was a charming smile that not
even Kyo was immune to.

"You have to cancel that. The
boss wants to see you now."

The smile on Soubi's
face became cold. Kyo never knew why but Soubi didn't like their employer very much. He had heard
whispers that their past was linked somehow but could never confirm it. Kyo had more than once tried to dig Soubi�s
mysterious past but the blond always managed to evade the questions. "Is
it so? I'll be going then. Do you have any appointment tonight?"

"Yes. My client wants to throw
an intimate party and I am asked to give a little performance. Would you like
to join when you're done?" Kyo asked with a
suggestive smile.

"No, thank you." Soubi said, walking away toward the elevator leading
directly to his employer's office on the top floor. �Ja.� He said, waving a hand at Kyo.

The office had an impressive view of
the city. The light was dimmed to enhance the breath taking scenery outside.
The office itself was decorated by modern furniture with neutral colors.
Several high end electronic appliances were seen around the room but the only thing
that Soubi notice was his employer's butterfly
collections, pinned around the room. The sight of it always made him sick. He
couldn't think of this place as anything more than a torture cage.

"Soubi-kun,
I haven't seen you for a while." Ritsu greeted
him from behind his desk. The light from his computer screen reflected on his
glasses, obscuring his eyes. A small, almost invisible smirk splayed on his
lips.

"I don't want to see you."
Soubi said, not hiding his disdain towards the man.

"But you will see me sooner or
later anyway." Ritsu reminded him calmly, barely
reacting to the obvious show of disrespect. "A VIP client demands your
company."

"I'm not interested." Soubi said coldly.

"You are a host, Soubi. Your duty is too please your client in anyway they
wish." Ritsu said. His silky voice made Soubi's skin crawl. The fading marks on his body went
ablaze at those words. Still, he remained coldly and defiantly staring at the
man. �He was an important client. Serve him. Please him. Win his favor. It
wouldn't be too difficult, I heard he was a kind
person. You will leave immediately. The folder is on the coffee table."

Soubi contemplated walking away from this
but in the end he could bring himself to fully defy his employer. He picked up
the folder and promptly left the room without saying another word. It took a
while for Soubi to calm his nerves in the slow moving
elevator. He leaned on the wall of the elevator; clenching his hand slightly as
his dark, painful memory came rushing back to him. No matter how many years
passed, he could never truly forgive Ritsu and forget
what had happened between them. Every meeting reopened the wounds and inflamed
the hatred. Soubi feared that these feeling would
overwhelm him one day and always suppressed them. But he knew that one day he
would have to face his inner demons.

When he had finally got himself
under control, he finally checked the folder. All their VIP clients went by
codenames as to not reveal their identity easily. Even the escorts sometimes
only knew them by these codenames instead of the real name. This time, on the
pale folder, written in simple black letter was a name he wasn't familiar with
but somehow managed to make his heart beat faster.

BELOVED
